Now that Indiana’s non-conference schedule is complete, it’s time to examine and rank how all 13 of IU’s scholarship players have fared this season.
Here are our power rankings, 13 through 1, of Indiana’s scholarship players through the season’s first 13 games:
13. Anthony Leal (four games): 0 points per game, 0.5 rebounds, 0.25 assists in 12 total minutes
Leal made national headlines this holiday season when he paid off his sister’s student loans with the money he had earned through NIL. The junior also announced a partnership with a real estate company on Dec. 28. The former Indiana Mr. Basketball and Bloomington native has become a fan favorite but is having trouble finding a spot in the rotation. In just four games played, Leal has not attempted a shot. Last year he averaged 10.3 minutes a contest and started twice.
12. Kaleb Banks (10 games): 3.3 points, 0.7 rebounds, 66.7 FG% in 5.9 minutes per game
Banks came into the season as the most under-the-radar freshman. And it was never expected that Georgia product would see significant minutes on the floor this season.

Duncomb still struggles to find consistent minutes due to the talented depth Indiana has in the frontcourt, but when he’s played there’s been flashes of his talent. Against Elon, the 6-foot-10 center had the best game of his career with 10 points and five rebounds in a career-high 17 minutes.
10. Jordan Geronimo (12 games): 5.2 points, 2.2 rebounds, 53.5 FG% in 13.1 minutes per game
There were a lot of high hopes for Jordan Geronimo this season. Coming in off a great finish to his sophomore year, Geronimo had flashed an ability to stretch the floor, rebound effectively and be a source of constant energy. This season, however, the player fans saw last March hasn’t really been there. The junior has struggled shooting from beyond the arc only making two 3s this season. It’s been tough for the…
